My first year of uni I befriended a guy online who it turned out was a final year student at the same uni. We chatted a bit online but when he asked me on a date/for more sexual stuff I turned it down because thatās not I wanted. He harrassed me online for a while really pushing. Then I started seeing somebody hanging around my halls of residence. We had a courtyard style building and people werenāt supposed to enter the courtyard at night unless they were a resident student. But during the day it was open access. When I realised it was him (heād sent me photographs of his face) and that I he was just hanging around and it was mor than just a one off coincidence I told security and they said theyād keep an eye out and wouldnāt let him through at night. But he would still hang around on the public footpath near the halls all the time.Ā
Then he started appearing outside my lecture theatres. Again, we went to the same uni so it could have been coincidence but it kept happening. At first I didnāt tell anybody because I felt stupid and he hadnāt actually *done* anything. But one or two of my friends noticed this guy hanging around and how he would just *stare* at me. Thatās all he would do. Just this steady stare right at me.Ā
If we were int he uni bar heād be there and position himself so he could stare.Ā
If we were at a club night heād stand out as the only person stood stock still in the middle of the dance floor staring. I told him to stop, to go away to leave me alone in person and via email. He never responded. My friends yelled at him becuase I was obviously getting scared and they were getting freaked out too.Ā
This happened for two years. Then in the third year it had stopped. I figured heād gotten bored or moved away. But then one night we were in a club in the town and there he was again. Stood stock still and staring. I panicked and left the club and hoped he wouldnāt follow. I tried to tell the bouncers but they were busy dealing with a fight that had broken out and I wasnāt allowed out through the door (because these two guys were going crazy and it wasnāt safe so fair cop to the bouncers there). Eventually when I was able to leave I only got about 50m before I realised there was somebody behind me. I was terrified. He was walking about 15m behind me at a steady pace just staring. I called a friend and asked them to come and meet me on the way home and I kept talking to them the whole time. I tried doing theĀ āstop to tie your shoelaceā trick hoping it would force him to walk past me. Bu instead he stopped and took a fake phone call.
And the police couldnāt do anything because technically the guy hadnāt done anything.Ā
But I had three years of being scared of this guy never knowing if he would snap and what he would do.
Always carry your keys in your fist. They make one hell of a pointy blunt force weapon.Ā
